It must have been tempting to call it a day but I\u2019m glad they kept going, I always thought the premise behind this game was fantastic, as it puts you in the mind of a suspected murderer. Add in the science fiction element and you should have an interesting first-person psychological horror. I\u2019ve only just got around to playing it, so here are my thoughts.I have to agree it is a thematically "smart" game and straight off the bat the game oozes oppressive atmosphere. Gameplay is broken up into exploring memories of a suspected murderer while piecing together evidence and solving puzzles. Much of the lore and backstory are told by some great environmental storytelling, from children\u2019s letters scattered on the floor, flowers left with a toy car and the \u2018something\u2019 in the vents that feeds on a body and drags it out of sight! In particular the Toyama work camp memory really drives home the big brother vibe, with security cameras monitoring \u2018workers\u2019 living quarters while mechanized guards patrol outside.The audio design is impressive, especially in the apartment, you can hear the sounds of arguing residents above you, ambient sounds of the world outside and security forces patrolling the area. This really enriches the game world and adds to that feel of constant dread and dystopia as it pulls you in and makes you want to explore the world.The focus on the story is also very intriguing and is delivered by picking up newspaper clippings, dictaphone recordings and exploring memories. You can tell the dev\u2019s have thought a lot about how the story and gameplay are connected. For example, the game makes use of an interesting survival mechanic called Cohesion. Narratively, its a great way of creating a sense of presence, that you are a custodian, linked to a mind via bio mechanical systems.. This also works for the puzzles; mental defenses players must solve to carry on. The save system maintains this goal and takes an abstract system and integrates into the narrative and lore of the game which I really enjoyed. These elements, create a real feeling of being inside the game's world.Onto the lighting, the game is dark, but IMHO, it works. I had no trouble finding cohesion or quest items as I played. I did however play in a darkened room though so that may have something to do with the lighting levels and adjusted the gamma accordingly. Sometimes what\u2019s hidden in the darkness is more terrifying as your mind fills in the blanks!The game does end with a 'to be continued' tag and I do hope that there will be more gameplay to follow. Judging by the dev\u2019s devotion and their communication here and on discord I think we can safely say they\u2019ll be more to come. I\u2019m particularly looking forward to VR support!If you enjoy a thinking man\u2019s horror game, I\u2019d give it a try! 8\/10.
